He was actually in the basement, one floor below Cassie.

On a Friday morning in September 2006, sixteen-year-old Cassie Jo Stoddart looked up from her locker and smiled at a camera. The two boys holding it were her friends. That night, they planned to kill her. In the first part of our series on the "Scream" inspired murder, Katie Ring goes back to the beginning: a house-sitting job out past the edge of town, two classmates obsessed with Scream and Columbine, and the warnings that reached their school long before anyone listened.

This week’s Headline: we unpack the case behind HBO's creepiest new docuseries, "The Pet Cemetery Murders: A Ghost Story." In 1985, Dorothy Lou Thompson was in a legal fight over her Louisiana pet cemetery. Ten days before her court date, she vanished, and weeks later she was found in the Mississippi River. The case sat cold until 2009, when a caller told detectives he knew who did it. His reason for coming forward? Dorothy’s ghost had appeared to him.

“Supposing I did kill the Black Dahlia. They couldn’t prove it now.” Detectives caught those words on a hidden microphone in 1950, and still crossed the man off their list. In the final part of our 3-part series on the Black Dahlia, Katie Ring covers a rogue police psychiatrist, a detective who accused his own father, a codebreaker who says he cracked a Zodiac cipher, and the 1947 suspect two separate investigations just landed on.

This week’s headline: A possible father-and-son serial killer duo unfolding in Philadelphia. A parking stop led police to Raymond and Eugene Horsch’s house: a basement lab, five urns, over a million photos and videos and a hidden safe. Five women appear dead in those files, and investigators just dug up bones in the backyard. Years earlier, Raymond published a “fictional” serial killer confession. Now police are wondering if it was fiction at all.
